Halle: In looking at the recipe for Eggplant Rollatini, I note in the directions you mention ricotta cheese, but I don’t see ricotta cheese in the ingredients list. How much ricotta cheese is used?
Hey Vicki, You are so right, I will update the recipe right away! Thanks so much for catching that 🙂
It is 1 1/2 cup ricotta cheese.
what could you replace prosciutto with..could you use seasoned beef..tks
I don’t see why not Reita, or I think italian sausage would work too.
You know what else would work Reita, Shaved ham, or even bacon.
sounds really good …have to make this weekend…i will let u know what i use and how it turns how tks so much for your ideas Hale
oops how it turns out lol
